Summary Introduction
Introduction
When we are in the midst of a stressful, frightening situation, we tend to focus on the things that are most stressful and frightening to us. As a result, we miss other details that we know intellectually we should pay attention to, but in the moment, we just can't. It is as if we go into a state called hyper-focus, where we are able to focus only on one or two aspects of the situation. As a result, other obvious details become blurred and inconsequential.
